Research Abstract |
Since structural alterations of glycans are known to be associated with changes of physiological environments, glycans have been received attention as target molecules for clinical biomarkers. In this study, we analyzed N- and O-glycans of glycoproteins from rat serum samples using capillary electrophoresis, and found that N-glycans showed disitinctive changes with age or high-fat diet. The present results indicate that glycans will be one of the useful biomarkers for aging.
